Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A0' against the official Murata datasheet to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics. Ensure the selected variant matches the required 5 pF load capacitance and 40 Ohm resistance specifications for the target circuit design before finalizing procurement orders.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 50 MHz reference is required with minimal external circuitry. The built-in capacitor simplifies layout compared to discrete crystal setups. Confirm that the through-hole package dimensions fit the available board space and that the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the application.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CERALOCK CSTLS series, which are ceramic resonators known for integrating load capacitors directly into the package. This series offers a cost-effective alternative to quartz crystals for applications where moderate frequency accuracy is sufficient. The through-hole construction provides mechanical stability for industrial environments.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Murata CSTLS series parts with matching 50 MHz frequency and 5 pF load capacitance. Verify equivalent motional resistance and physical dimensions to ensure compatibility with existing footprints and circuit performance requirements.
